This is an updated list of my previous version.

I no longer separate between "serious" movies and movies with explicit sexual content as this distinction is idiosyncratic altogether.

Many lists were updated or became longer. There will be no more ranking and calculating. The new system works much easier. Movies are sorted by the amount of times they were mentioned in the lists. New lists can be suggested and I am more than happy to find more interesting lists on the broad genre.

There are essential gaps in the spheres of New Queer Cinema and LBGT porn. Both should find their way into a list like this and I am looking for good resources. One of which is Rich's brilliant book on the NQC.

This is the fourth version of this list, which I update about once a year. As in the years before there is a slight increase in films. The complete list features 586 films.

The lists included were:
TheBacklot's Top 100 Greatest Gay Movies
Out Magazine's 50 Essential Gay Films
Metro Weekly Gay Films Everyone Should See
HuffingtonPost PRIDE The Essentials
FlavorWire 50 Essential LGBT Films
Total Film's 50 Best Gay Movies
101 Must-See Movies for Gay Men
Advocate 175 Essential Films
Rateyourmusic Top 50 Queer Cinema
